Hi Jim,  Hi Ed.
Thanks for your responses.

Jim, I thought this would just return the value of the variable SHIP_FLAT_RATE
without having to lookup any further table. I looked at your email, from Jun
28, but it seems to be trying to do a lot more than what I want to - I just
want one shipping price.

Should there be a shipping.gdbm file in the products directory? - I am missing
one - I only have a shipping.asc file ?

Cheers,
Leon
